Locate the wires connecting to the driver. There will be a red wire connected to the driver’s positive terminal, and a black wire connected to the driver’s negative terminal.
During reassembly, it is important to orient the wires properly to avoid damage to the speaker and new drivers.
With your soldering iron and solder sucker, remove the solder connecting the wires to each terminal, and then gently pull the wires away from the terminals to free them.
